I've despised it since the very minute I first heard the phrase on Lovesexy. Then, to add insult to injury, he decides to use it as the name of his backing band...for one thing, the word 'new' is absolutly meaningless. Nothing is 'new'. The minute you utter the sound 'new' it is old. Time does exist - I experience it every day and it's a very important part of our human existance. So nothing is ever 'new'. And 'Power Generation' is just silly. I mean - 'Power'? As in 'Puff Girls'? Just an infantile concept. And 'Generation' is just an awkward phrase to add to a band name or any other concept.
Horrible moniker. Time for a change. The problem is that they've invested so much in maintaining the copyright on the phrase, that they'll want to exploit it forever. [Edited 10/26/07 14:50pm] | |
